What Super Power Would YOU Pick?
After watching episode one of Heroes, I asked my wife and myself what super power we would each want if we were given the chance. She had a pretty good answer: to be able to heal herself and others. That’s noble. That’s wonderful. That’s so NOT what I would pick.
My Daughter Moves My Heart
I’m sitting in the living room, typing this on a laptop while my daughter plays with a pacifier on the carpet. She’s eight months old, and so ridiculously adorable I cannot contain myself.
There is no feeling similar to the one I get when my daughter looks at me with pure joy at discovering I am [...]
Disillusionment Is a Good Thing

We debated Sarah Palin’s resume today. He threw out [...]
Domain Buying and Hoarding
I have acknowledged yet again that I have a problem. Not JUST a problem. A disease. Okay, I’m kidding, but as often as I feel compelled to buy a domain that popped into my head, you’d think I was fighting alcoholism.
I have at least 20 domains I’m not even using yet. It’s similar to my [...]
